Speak English, you're giving me a headache!

A big thanks go to my wife. Without her, I don't think I would have had as many readers right now.

In the comments page to my original post, Good Husband and I had an exchange in Spanish. I have no idea if he knows Spanish, but I know very little. Actually, the conversation we carried on, at least on my part, due to the translator on Dictionary.com. Let's just say, something got lost in translation.

After finally figuring out what he was saying, (something about how I was a Prohibition Party member because I shot the rest of the parties down), I came back with the following:


¿Ése es su razonamiento en que cree mí es un miembro del partido de prohibición? ¡Triste, muy triste! Usted necesita ampliar su mente un pedacito.

¿Usted piensa porque me río de las cajas de la gente, eso que es apenas una cuestión de la caja derecha? ¿O ésa quizá que tiene una caja más grande es la respuesta? No, ninguno de éstos es verdad. No es uniforme una cuestión de una diversa caja o envase formada. No importa la composición o la naturaleza de la caja, sigue siendo una caja.

Construimos la caja alrededor de nosotros mismos, y la realidad se ha convertido en la caja. No vivo en la caja, yo vivo en el que sea, apenas como usted. Todo lo que usted tiene que hacer debe parar el vivir en cajas. Usted inmóvil verá las cajas, pero no más de largo con la energía que usted les atribuye. Una caja es más de gran alcance que una nube en una forma familiar, usted la hace cuáles es.

¡Usted da energía a la ilusión, libera su mente!

¡Oh, y contestar a su pregunta, soy un extranjero! Creemos en solamente el partido intergaláctico que vendrá conectar a tierra elegido una vez, y la rotura violenta su civilización y rend sus cuerpos. ¡Eso la izquierda será esclavos y los juguetes del sexo para su demented fantasías anales!

¡Voto para J'h'lkv/Nader en ' 04!!!


What I meant for it to say was this, (the following text is what I put into the translator, and the above is what came out):


That is your reasoning in believing I am a member of the ProhibitionParty? Sad, very sad! You need to expand your mind a bit.

You think because I laugh at people's boxes, that it is just a matterof the right box? Or that maybe having a bigger box is the answer?No, none of these are true. It is not even a matter of a differentshaped box or container. It does not matter the composition or thenature of the box, it is still a box.

We constructed the box around ourselves, and reality has become thebox. I do not live in the box, I live in that which is, just likeyou. All you have to do is stop living in boxes. You will still seethe boxes, but no longer with the power you ascribe them. A box is nomore powerful than a cloud in a familiar shape, you make it what itis.

You give power to the illusion, free your mind!

Oh, and to answer your question, I'm an alien! We believe in only theIntergalactic Party that will come to Earth once elected, and smashyour civilization and rend your bodies. Those left will be slaves andsex toys for their demented anal fantasies!

Vote for J'h'lkv/Nader in '04!!!


Well, when you translate it back into English, (with the same translator), you get this:


That one is its reasoning in which I creates is a member of the prohibition party? Sad, very sad! You need to extend your mind a small piece. You think because I laugh to me of the boxes of people, that that is as soon as a question of the right box? Perhaps or that onethat has one more a greater box is the answer? No, no of these is truth. A question of a diverse box is not uniform or packages formed. It does not concern the composition or the nature of the box, continues being a box. We constructed the box around we ourself, andthe reality has become the box. Nonalive in the box, I live in whom is, as soon as like you. Everything what you must do must stop living in boxes. Immovable you will see the boxes, but not more of length with the energy that you attribute to them. A box is more long-range than a cloud in a familiar form, you do it which are. You give energy to the illusion, releases your mind! Oh, and to answer its question, Iam a foreigner! Let us create in only the intergalactic party that will come to connect once to chosen earth, and the breakage doesviolence to its civilization and rend its bodies. That the left will be enslaved and the toys of sex for his demented fantasies annals!Vote for J'h'lkv/Nader in ' 04!


My god, that is a fucking headache, I didn't even read it! If you did, have you ever thought about becoming a proof-reader/editor?


What!? Are you poe or sumthin'!?

I think we're all pretty fed up with this election year. More mudslinging, corruption, spin/bullshit, talking points, and just plain crappy choices. Sometimes, you have to ask yourself, do we really live in a democracy?

Case in point:

Every morning on the way to work, I drive by countless election signs. Yet, all these election signs are for one candidate only. The same signs in red, white, and blue telling me to vote for him, and nowhere in sight can I see his opposition. Nowhere along the same road, or a different road, or in the ENTIRE area can I see his opponent. I haven't seen it on TV, by phone, or anything. I do not even know his name until recently.

One day, I get one of those door knob advertisements, and it is for this very same candidate with all the signs. I read it and had a gag reflex. It stated his stances on various issues on it, and it was the current Republican boiler plate crap. After I stopped dry heaving, I was pissed. To give an example of some of the crap on it, he supports a gay marriage amendment, which of course, is always proceeded by the obligatory, "marriage is between a man and a woman", (maybe peppered with a little moral outrage).

Give me a fucking break. We are living in violent and uncertain times. We are at war, with many foreign diplomacy issues. The economy is not doing good, with many people having to give up careers and get ANY job, (if they're lucky), so they can pay their bills. And against all of this, which is only a very short list of our problems, you bring up gay marriage!? Are you out of your fucking mind!?

[Start Tangent]

We currently have legislation, the "Defense of Marriage Act", that handles this issue. But oh no, that's not enough! Let's tear into the Constitution! We don't want GAY people screwing up marriage. Why, think of what that means. If gay people can get married, my wife may start eating the neighbor's pussy! And then my son will turn into a pillow biter! Who knows, I might be next!

What is this, "Night of the Living Gay"!? When did giving someone else a right, that you already have, become a bad thing? We already have a high rate of divorce, single parent homes, domestic violence, and absentee parents. And guess who did that? Heterosexuals, not homosexuals.

Honestly, this is a bullshit issue, and that's why it pisses me off so much! I don't care if Chuck and Buck wanna fuck. I don't care if they want to get married. Hell, my favorite porn is when two beautiful women are making out and munching on each other's boxes! But if you think it's gross, fine, say so. Show your moral outrage if it makes you feel better, but don't make it a public policy issue, especially during THIS election!

[End Tangent]

Well now, imagine at least a half a dozen "issues" like this, including a very simple minded view of current political events, and you can imagine the "advertisement". I wondered, "Who is he running against?", and why haven't I heard anything yet? Well, I finally get a big hint.

One day, on my voice mail, I come across a political message "paid for by the RNC and not supported by any candidate". The message misrepresented the facts around the Home Land Security Act, and the events surrounding its passage, to take a pot shot at the incumbent. So basically, the RNC did the dirty work for their candidate because he's a pussy. And with a quick look up on the Internet, I see that the candidate the RNC message was bad mouthing was the candidate running against the fellow with all the signs on the road. Hmm...

At this point I think, "Why the fuck isn't the other guy putting up a fight!". The Democrat candidate running happens to be the incumbent and I've never seen any kind of advertisement or material of any kind! It makes no sense.

I live in Houston, so this should not surprise me, really. This, the town of George Bush, (actually, he's a Yankee). This, the town of that motherfucker Delay! Why should this surprise me?

What I'm going to try to do tomorrow is find the number for his campaign, if not his office, and ask what the fuck is up in the most civil of tones. While I hate the whole two-party system we have, I still strongly believe in democracy, and believe this nation should be a true democracy. I still believe in fucking REAL choices. This, in fact, is the reason why the current party structure bothers me. And in that light, I've got to know the story.

Because, while I hate all this elementary school "left/right" bullshit, I hate one sided fights even more. I'll let you know what I find out tomorrow...


Oh, and if for some reason you are a Republican reading this, and are pissed off, please see my initial post before you comment. And if you are a Democrat thoughtfully nodding your head, go see my initial post while you are here. And if you are a Libertarian, or something similar, just go whack off to Ayn Rand. In fact, I know what it will sound like:

"OOOooooohhhhh, I'm cumming!!! Fuck the poor, fuck the poor, ahhhhhhhh"

We had another of those damn messages from the RNC on our voice mail - I deleted it without telling you.

All those Kerry/Edwards signs we saw yesterday were refreshing, though!

Sorry! I meant to give you a nod, but I got caught up in my rant, can you ever forgive me?

Bite the back of your balls!? What, is your dog currently licking the front?

Bubba,

Fine. No spanish then.

Poe's opponent is Nick Lampson, who was my representative until I moved to my home and fell under the evil representation of De Lay. You should be able to get Lampson signs from your local democratic HQ. Check the Lampson web site for information: http://www.lampson.com/

You are dead on about the "Defense of Marriage Act." The act is nothing more than an attempt to hijack the election by a morally bankrupt administration. They play the issues of hatred and fear to convince people to throw their best interest out the window because of a few polarizing issues. Vote for me and I'll not let gay's marry and I'll ship your job to India. Vote for me to stop abortion and give $130 billion tax dollars to the perscription drug companies. Vote for me for prayer in schools and to erode your civil rights.

The simple fact is that a gay or lesbain couple that acts legally as a partnership (joint accounts, buying a home together, etc...) in the same way that a hetrosexual couple acts is denied 1,049 federal rights. That is wrong (cite: http://scribbling.net/1049-federal-rights-depend-on-marital-status).

The Republicans woo voters with these issues but they don't do much about them. Bush hardly passed the Partial Birth Abortion ban before the states over turned it because it made no exception for the life of the mother. The Republicans will continue to pay lip service to these issues as long as they get people to vote for them. Were the Republicans to actually ban abortion then they would lose their base.

The strongest alliance in American politics is between the rich and the stupid.

As for your wife eating the neighbor's pussy; it's not that bad as long as you get to watch. Plus, your wife may be up for sharing that pussy with you, and that is always fun!
